From reading past C-D R&P sub-fora, it's obvious that a number of fundamentalist Christians absolutely believe in the literal bible. Included are all of the bible's gloriously magic stories, like a completely inundating global fludd, and Noah beckoning two of each of all the world's animals onto his little wooden unpowered Ark in order to re-populate earth after the salty fludd waters subside.

Who here believes this?

(PS: This will be a short thread, I promise!)

Nah. There is SOOOOOOOOOOO much evidence against such thing happening it could fill several of these pages.

Just one example. How did marsupials indigenous to Australia get there if there was no land mass connecting the island continent?

Fundamentalists crack me up. "Ohhhh, if the Bible says it happened, you can bet your bottom dollar it happened just like the Bible says it did!"

Well, Rife, they found the Aktual ark up on Ararat. Not that Rock outcrop of Wyatts, but the one the Chinese missionary expedition found. Can't argue with the facts, can you?

Funny. Every civilization has THE flood story or A flood story? If every civilization has a flood story, and all civilizations were destroyed in The flood, how did THE flood story get passed down? Then, in the 4000 years that Fundies believe is the time since the flood, how did all of the civilizations disperse from Ararat and develop their cultures, languages, and diverse appearances? Sorry, that doesn't cut it.

Yes, you can easily argue these "facts."
